Company making me take holiday but I am still only getting 80%

The company I work for are making us take our holiday (which I am fine with and is legal) while I am furloughed. But they have informed is that we will still only receive 80% of our wages because they are paying is our holiday then using the furlough scheme to make it to 80% is this legal and moral?

I wish someone would actually explain the law supporting this conclusion. It seems to be a widely held belief, but there are many widely held beliefs that have no foundation. Government has gone to the trouble of spelling it out very clearly on SMP, so why not for holiday pay?luvchocolate said:This has just been on Martin Lewis on TV. They have to make it up too 100%1 -
I guess it is one of many things they need to clear up. I suppose the best they can do is try and get it at 100% and if they can't and it turns out to be wrong claim it back later.1

Yes. She didn't say why either, but you wouldn't expect her to on a short program.
